Letter of Recommendation for Job

To whom it may concern:

I am writing this recommendation letter for Allison Sebby for a job position in the store Hot Topic. Allison and myself have known each other for quite a while now, since middle school to be exact. The further we go into the future the further our friendship goes, also does her knowledge of bands and everything out there. Allison has an amazing passion for the singers musicians out there she knows from every ethnic group out there.

Allison has various talents and amazing skills, one of her talents is that she knows so much about cosmetology and all the different matters of cosmetology. For example Allison knows how to dye hair with all the amazing hairstyles that exist and she also does beautiful make up. Her knowledge with bands and various artists is outstanding, she can name so many bands and their songs and band members without having to think twice. As the level of knowing Allison increased for me i found out so many more things about her like her various passions and accomplishments of getting to meet and see a lot of different bands and their members.

In my opinion hiring the lovely Allison Sebby would be an amazing experience for the store and just getting to know her would be a privilege.She certainly would fill up the store with her wonderful knowledge of anything band related.If you would like to have another conversation about Allison , you may contact me at (915)929-4295 or at liilyane.12345@gmail.com

Cover Letter

Dear Manager,

I would like to show my greatest interest in the internship in response to our last meeting earlier this week.

As I had mentioned before I am currently in the field of cosmetology and hope to run my own form of business in the future. This position has interested me because it can bring me lots of new experience and can help educate me on what will be expected. I am very skilled when it comes to learning new aspects quickly and efficiently. I also work very well alone and with others, with lots of patience for other people. I can easily teach people as long as i know what to do and am very kind to others. I am very creative and can help contribute and discuss new ideas.

I believe that i am a good candidate for this internship and also for your business. Being included in this industry would be a large step in my future and hopefully can contribute to the future of this company. I would like to ask for a meeting to further discuss my interest in your company. I appreciate your time and hope you will consider me for this position.

Sincerely,

Allison Sebby
